Originally the slang for police in Portland, Oregon.
Fuck, the po po's are up in this bitch just cause' we skatin.
2. Slang term used within Police forces to denote disgruntled officers who didn't achieve promotion. Stands for "Pissed off, passed over."
Cop 1: (To new recruit) "I'm telling you the job sucks. Look at me, 15 years of service and I still didn't make Sergeant." Cop 2 : "Don't listen to him son, he's just a disgruntled old Po-Po."
This is another name for "cops" or the "police". It is of hip-hop/rap culture origins, and is one of my favorite words. Hearing this word can often make one laugh as well.
(From Trick Daddy's THUG HOLIDAY) "....what would I be without my guns? How could I get away from tha po-po's..."
